ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Widget Custom HomeScreen holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Widget Custom HomeScreen has 2.8K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Widget Station's written reviews are positive against 26% of Widget Custom HomeScreen's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Widget Station ships an update every 2 months, Widget Custom HomeScreen monthly. The most recent releases landed on June 1, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
